Its identical externally to a 3.2 but I've rebuilt a 3.2 GTA engine here:

Thanks chris, exactly what I was looking for. I do understand the difference in the setup but I think for the future we need to find a set up that will take place of this older 24V tensioner that is N/A. It almost looks like it would fit perfect actually. Holes look like they will line up and the length of the tensioner looks almost perfect too.

Thanks again., lots of help.

Thanks for the comment. Yes it does. But most people don't even know what Alfa Romeo is. LOL!! Idiots!
